Re: Stryker2011's: JABBA THRONE ROOM CUSTOM DIORAMA (WIP)
I’ve been researching the idea of liquid mask after it was suggested on a different forum, but it sounds sketchy at best over the top of acrylic — and you have to be very timely with it or risk pulling the paint up. With as uneven as the vinyl wallpaper I’m using is, I’m more than a little concerned about even being able to get the appropriate areas covered, and then being able to get it all off.
I’m thinking the idea of drawing the design on with a colored pencil and dry brushing as best as possible is about the only way to go — it’s going to take a long time to do that main arch, so that might be the only one that gets the design. And if it turns out too dark, or “clean”, I’ll just pretend Jabba’s interior decorators came by to spruce the place up a bit.
